Unprecedented Access to Vehicle Data

How does it work ?

REGULATED FULL ACCESS to VEHICLE DATA

Our approach is highly pragmatic: vehicle diagnostics offer mature, well-regulated solutions for accessing any vehicle data through the standardized OBD port. Essentially, these are the tools used by workshop technicians to access all vehicle parameters.

What we’ve done is integrate a workshop tool into Munic’s Edge Computing devices, providing remote access to a professional diagnostics platform. 

However, creating a competitive and reliable solution that’s always connected – even when the vehicle is in motion and not limited to workshop use – is no small feat.

We have spent over a decade developing it, leveraging diagnostic technologies and regulations, combined with Edge computing capabilities, and validating it across numerous projects and millions of vehicles worldwide.

6-D approach to vehicle data access

With a unique 6-D approach to vehicle data access, MUNIC new OBD Dongles and TCUs grant comprehensive and reliable coverage for most vehicles including EVs. Details about this 6D

The data set includes dashboard mileage & fuel, next service, full OEM DTC scan, intelligent crash detection, battery wear, and for EVs, battery charge and current, health certificate…

Easy to use, as well as customizable with Morpheus OS based on Linux.

Programming & OTA has never been so easy and reliable with Morpheus powerful SDK & tools.

Rich peripheral set & libraries, Bluetooth, WiFi hotspot, CAN & CAN FD, Dash cam, various I/Os, driver identification, door lock/unlock, anti-start relay, windshield breakage detection, tire wear …

Last, and essential for business, MUNIC devices have the highest quality scores and competitive prices.

The 6-D approach to vehicle data access:

1.      Vehicle Coverage: International regulations (Europe, North America…) mandate fair access to vehicle protocols specifications to Diagnostics Solutions providers. Leveraging diagnostics solutions and regulations at large scale, enables MUNIC devices to access raw vehicle data from almost all vehicles.

2.     Data range: Diagnostics standards, which are supported by all vehicles, provide a very deep access to onboard data for multiple purposes: repair & maintenance, inspection, tuning & calibration, vehicle software update… Extensive support of the diagnostics standards enables Munic devices to access to very large sets of data from vehicles.

3.     Automation: reliability, cost efficiency and scalability imply a full automation of vehicle data access. Automatic loading of the appropriate vehicle stack in the device attached to a specific vehicle, unloading/loading a new one in case of swap, gathering vehicle information from 3rd party data bases, this implies a reliable and safe vehicle identification and automation process.

4.    Data consistency: automatic access to vehicle data implies continuous verification of accuracy, unlike for workshop operations where the technician can verify manually the results. This is done through MUNIC DCW – Data Consistency Watcher – service.

5.     Vehicle Compatibility: Diagnostics solutions are designed for Workshop usage and manual operation, not for full continuous operation on the road. For instance, vehicles tend not to support diagnostics queries in certain modes, with varying reactions. Full compatibility implies the automatic detection and adaptation to all these modes for all vehicles.

6.    Information Extraction: Some information such as dashboard mileage is directly useful. Others requires a filtering and in many cases significant processing to extract useful and actionable information. For instance, reading fuel tank level poses several challenges: it’s very often unprecise, and for several vehicles the information available is the fill percentage and not the quantity. Therefore, the system must automatically retrieve from other sources the tank size, which depends a lot on vehicle make/model/year. That is a rather simple case. Trouble codes (DTC) interpretation, prognostic… tend to be way more complex. Information extraction requires both Edge computing and Cloud computing capabilities. Regarding Edge Computing, it is not enough for the device to embed a microcontroller or microprocessor & associated software: it requires a powerful embedded software architecture (OS + framework and comprehensive security mechanism) enabling anyone to add software features, including resource demanding ones inside the device, in an independent yet secure way. This enables authorized parties to remotely implement and operate appropriate algorithms onboard whenever necessary. Of course, such access must comply with all applicable regulations, standards, and best practices.

Above 6 main principles are essential for vehicle data access, and all Munic devices implement this 6D approach, which has been developed and validated on millions of devices in the field in Europe, the Americas, and many other regions in the world.
